Chapter 14: Ye Shengying
After the veteran simply bandaged Li Zicheng's wound with gauze and alcohol, he heard the sound of the explosion at the base of the Syndicate Society, and then shook him vigorously and asked:
"Hey, wake up, what about the others? Are the others still in there? ”
Li Zicheng swallowed his throat and said in a weak voice:
"They... They had already escaped from their cells, but, but..."
"But, but what?"
Seeing Li Zicheng stammering, the veteran asked anxiously.
"But... But I don't know if it's safe to leave... After all, there are so many monsters around here..."
Li Zicheng took a deep breath and struggled to finish his words.
"If I hadn't been the thief who led the way and tricked me into taking a detour, I would have been here a long time ago!"
The veteran said angrily, looking at his angry appearance, the robber was obviously killed by him.
"Let's go back to town and have a look, maybe they'll be there waiting for me."
The veteran thought about it and decided to go back to the town first to see if Zhao Yong had gone back there to find him.
So, the veteran started the car, increased his horsepower and drove in the direction of the town, the road was bumpy, and Li Zicheng fainted unconsciously.
After an hour, they made it all the way to the town, and Li Zicheng also woke up, he sat up in pain, looked out the window, and found that the town was still very quiet, except for the sound of their car engines.
The veteran was looking for a place to park, and he saw Zhao Yong and others in the distance, there were only five of them left, and two of them were seriously injured and carried away by the other three, and the three merchants were gone.
Seeing the veteran coming in a car, it was like seeing a savior, and the veteran got out of the car to help carry the wounded onto the carriage and bandage them.
And when Zhao Yong and others saw Li Zicheng, they first thought he was wrong, and then said silently:
"Brother Li, are you still alive? That's great! When we left the day before yesterday, we all thought you were dead... I didn't expect that..."
Li Zicheng told the story from beginning to end on the road, Zhao Yong was surprised at first, and then curiously wanted Li Zicheng to show the wizard's power, but Li Zicheng said that he may be overconsumed now, and the spell can no longer be activated.
Subsequently, Li Zicheng asked Zhao Yong about the others.
Zhao Yong said that except for the five of them, the others were already dead, and the team member named Xiao Wu also died, and he was killed by them because of the mutation.
Zhao Yong explained:
"Do you remember the gang that robbed us of our clothes when we escaped from our cells one day?"
Li Zicheng nodded, and Zhao Yong continued:
"After they went out, after being exposed to the sun's ultraviolet rays, their hair began to fall out, and in just a few minutes, they all turned into monsters with tails and fangs..."
"However, they seem to have a resonance, gathering all the monsters in the vicinity..."
"Oh... I'm going to say why there's that kind of thing there, but not here, because I'm attracted to it... And then what? ”
"And then almost all the guards in their base were infected, and some of them were eaten directly as food, and we dodged those monsters all the way, and then followed the signs all the way..."
"As a result, Xiao Wu also suddenly had a lesion on the way, injuring several of our team members, we originally tried to make Xiao Wu sober, but after his form was completely mutated, we had no choice but to kill him..."
"Their skin becomes hard after the mutation, but I accidentally hit his temple and found that it was their weak point..."
After Zhao Yong finished speaking, he also said that the three businessmen didn't know why they wanted to frame them, causing the remaining six of them to be killed by the mutated Xiao Wu, and then Zhao Yong did not execute the three murderers who killed indirectly on the spot, but let them go.
After Li Zicheng heard this, he was very angry, because if he was replaced, he felt that he would not let go of the three businessmen.
The veteran who was driving in front also heard what Zhao Yong said, and he said very puzzled:
"They appear like they appear out of nowhere, without any surprise, so I don't think this matter is simple, we had better hurry to Chengjiang..."
They were not far from Chengjiang, but when it got dark, the veteran felt that it was inconvenient to hurry, so he rested in that town for the night.
If he had known that so many things would happen, he would definitely rush to Chengjiang overnight.
There were still five hours to go from here to Chengjiang, but fortunately the truck still had enough fuel to drive to Chengjiang, and there were no obstacles along the way, and those monsters did not appear.
Li Zicheng sat quietly alone in the innermost part of the carriage, he leaned against the window, looked at the rows of cedar trees flying backwards outside the window, and couldn't help but think of the girl:
"I forgot to ask her name... I wonder how she's doing? Forehead... Regardless of her, she doesn't care if I live or die, she ran away first, and the monsters in the vicinity have been attracted to that base, and now that the base has been blown up, there shouldn't be anything..."
Thinking about it, I fell asleep unconsciously with pain.
When he woke up, he found himself lying in a poor hospital room.
He had a red potion hanging from his right hand and a white hospital gown.
"Click"
At this time, the door was opened, and Li Zicheng sat up from the hospital bed. Seeing the veteran walking in from the outside, still carrying an insulated lunch box in his hand, he saw Li Zicheng sitting up, so he stepped forward and asked:
"How? Feeling better? ”
Li Zicheng nodded and responded:
"Well, thank you senior, I feel much better... But what am I? ”
"Oh, you fell into a coma in the car last night, because the wound on your back was inflamed and you had a high fever, so we sent you to the hospital for treatment as soon as we arrived in Jiangcheng..."
After the veteran finished speaking, he saw that Li Zicheng seemed to have some doubts, so he continued:
"Zhao Yong, they have trained at the border, because these monsters have been frequently attacking civilians outside the city recently, so they may have to be stationed outside the city for a while, you can recuperate from your injuries and rush to the north early tomorrow morning..."
"Hmm... Well? Senior, how do you know I'm going to the Northland as a spy?"
Li Zicheng nodded first, and then realized that the veteran actually knew his mission, because in addition to Commander Hua, only Squadron Tan and himself knew about this task.
"I was Commander Hua's escort before, and he asked me to pick you up, so of course I know."
"Oh..."
"You don't have to call me senior, Ye Shengying is my name, according to the seniority, you can call me Uncle Ye in the future..."
After Ye Shengying and Li Zicheng chatted for a few words, they said that they had something to leave, and then told him to report to the military department here tomorrow morning.
He also left him a rusty Hidden Blade, and he said that Li Zicheng now had a wizard's charm and should be able to use it.
left, but Li Zicheng had some questions and didn't ask Ye Shengying, that is, why he was scratched by these monsters and was not taken to the military quarantine area.
